Million Hoodie March

The officers involved filed reports saying Williams used blunt objects and a cutting object in a threatening or attacking manner, and the officers fired at him several times, according to The Record. He died later that evening.

His mother, Shirley Williams, spoke with Sybrina Fulton, the mother of Martin, at a fundraiser to benefit programs targeting at-youth risk in Harlem Saturday night.

"I was crying a river," Williams told The Record.

Williams said many people approached Fulton at the event, but that she was able to talk to her for about 10 or 15 minutes, The Record reported. As they spoke, Williams said Fulton teared up.

"I'm glad she took the time to meet me," Williams said.

Malik Williams' case is expected to be presented to a grand jury.
